The 2848's can be had at pretty good prices these days. Don't think I'll be needing any fancy features out of these guys aside from vlaning, spanning tree, port channeling and some other basic commodities -- all of which should be cake for this switch.
I was going to pickup some 2950's, but considering these are only ~600 each in most cases..might as well.
I just moved my site to dedicated server due to shared hosting capacity problem. Again I am facing Too many connection problem, when i contacted go daddt they replied as follow

Thank you for contacting Server Support. There are a couple of things you might want to check. First is how you have your httpd service configured. Make sure you have sufficient MaxClients defined in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf. Additionally you will want to refer to your /etc/my.cnf file to make sure you have it configured to allow as many max_connections and max_user_connections as are needed.
I am using Redhat Fedora with Plesk as control Panel. Any help how i can change this Max_user_connections?
I am looking for a Procurve 2848 switch. It's listed on ebay with different prices (from 650 to 3000usd). I wonder what price I should consider as a fair price? Dont want to pay much, but dont want to buy broken unit at cheap price either. An used one is fine whenever it's still working at all ports

View 1 Replies View RelatedHas anyone successfully gotten Apache 2.2 and cPanel 11 running in production? I would love to have this setup.
I'm currently running cPanel 11.15.0-RELEASE with Apache 2.0.16 with no problems.
I would love to get Apache 2.2 running so I can actually utilize Ruby on Rails.
I would like to set up a quick and dirty mail server for my production machine.
Basically, I just need to send emails to myself when I'm testing php scripts that use mail(). My solution right now is to comment the instances of mail() out until the site goes live, which is a pain.
I'm on a Windows Vista(64) box, I'm running Apache2, PHP5, and MySQL5. What (free) mailserver could I use that has a relatively quick setup.
How I do put a website of a client that is in production and give them access it to view it while preventing search engines from indexing it? I had the production site on a sub domain but search engines would inevitably index it. I could a no-index robot text but if people had the domain, they'd still find it. I want to just put it on my server and the client can login with a PW and view the status.
View 3 Replies View RelatedAfter several issues with our shared hosting provider, I have decided to recommend we move our site to a VPS solution.
We are a video/media production house and although our actual site does not demand many cpu/memory resources, we have a huge need for ample disk space and FAST data transfers up and down.
We are constantly uploading video files for client approval, receiving files from animators/designers/etc., delivering files to clients, etc. and need FAST and RELIABLE hosting to accomplish this.
I may end up using a content management system for the site itself, probably Drupal, but our actual web content is minimal. Most of our traffic takes place behind the scenes as data transfer.
I simply don't have the bandwith onsite to run my own server, so I would like to try the VPS route. I don't think we have money to budget for a dedicated server.
One last question. Do any VPS solutions offer a media streaming server for Flash streaming?
Working on bringing up a new site and was looking to solicit some feedback regarding the optimum way to maintain build/production integrity.
I currently use FileZilla FTP client, set file override to trigger on size and do a bulk upload of the entire site.
The problem is that I need to exclude certain files and directories like the image directory and the configure.php etc. every time I do an upload.
I have used Dreamweavers development/production sync features for a client site in the past and that was very good.
I was thinking about writing my own script to do the maintenance work, but thought I would ask if there is a better way.
How do you all maintain your production/development synchronization?
For learning purposes, I'd like to purchase a switch to network at least 4 servers. Based on your knowledge of switches and the ones you currently use in production, could you recommend some switches that, while initially for development use, could be transitioned to production?
I'd like a switch that specifically isn't meant for home use, because a big part of the reason for purchasing it is to get experience configuring, using, and troubleshooting a production-quality switch that has anywhere from 8-32 ports.
For those of you that actually network 32 devices together in production, do you have one mega 32-port switch, or multiple smaller (e.g. 8-port) switches? What setup, in your experience, have you determined to be ideal?
What criteria are very important to consider when purchasing a switch that, as a newbie to this area, I may not have otherwise considered? Most resources on this topic give pretty basic information, but don't highlight the real 'gotcha' areas.
Have run through a bunch of threads on mod_proxy race conditions, possible causes, and potential solutions.
What is the status? Is there a fix for this, maybe in 2.4.7?
On 2.4.3 in production we literally have 10K errors in the past 2 months along the lines of:
Code : AH00898: Error reading from remote server returned by...
Application server (JVM webapp) issues no errors at the time of mod_proxy error occurring. It seems then that mod_proxy is sporadically broken, which is horrible for end users accessing an otherwise rock solid production application.
I'm not sure if i posted this in the right place - but couldn't find a better place. Here is my problem.
I am converting my current site [URL] ... from one software to another. I am testing it on a temporary domain name [URL] .....
Once i finish testing i want to move the .co site to the .com site and i don't know the best way to do this.
An obvious way would be to move all of the files and databases to the .com site after first deleting all of the files at the .com site. I would also have to do a few tweaks to the software to make sure it's pointing to the .com and not .co where iI tested.
but this method seems clunky.
Is there a way to just point the .com to the .co when I'm ready to 'move' and therefore nothing would actually get 'moved'?? both the .com and .co are on the same VPS.
I installed XAMP and copied my entire site down and put it in htdocs. I can see the index page, but the page's links and css are broken.
My local site:
//localhost/libweb/
my production environment:
//sitename.edu
and the physical address on the box is:
f:inetpublibweb
I have two servers - one serves dynamic content (PHP) and the other serves static content (images and other files).
The PHP needs to have access to the images and files on the other server so at the moment I execute SSHFS manually to mount a directory containing the contents of the remote server. Permissions are set up so PHP can access and modify the images and files as if they're local files.
This works fine until the server needs restarting or network problems occur. I'd like to rectify this by using an daemon auto-mounter to make sure the directory is remounted if it ever becomes unmounted for any reason, including after a server reboot.
I understand that SSHFS is solid and secure, and both AFUSE and AutoFS offer suitable auto-mounting functionality, but I can't find any solid information on how suitable AFUSE or AutoFS are for a production server - my main concern being whether it's going to cause some unforeseen security issues.
Is AFUSE or AutoFS suitable for a production server?
I want to create a testing environment that is a miniature replication of a full production environment for a web service. From what I understand I'll need three components:
1. A web server
2. PIX firewall
3. DB server
Is there anything else I'll need or anything else I should be mindful of? Looking forward to insight/feedback.
As it stands now, I host my DNS locally. However, I would like to use DNSmadeEasy instead of my local DNS service. As far as I can tell, this entails the following:
1) Transferring my DNS zones over to DNSmadeEasy
2) Updating my glue records (or "host records" as GoDaddy calls them) so that my current ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com point to the DNSmadeEasy IP's instead of my server IP's.
My question then is, will the nameserver records for domains that point to my DNS automatically update?
The reason I ask is that when you setup nameserver entries at some registrars, they ask you for the nameservers AND the associated IP's. So do people who host on my server need to go to their registrar and update the IP's manually or will these glue records changes be reflected on all domains that point to ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com once their TTL expires?
I built a website for a friend and uploaded it using Cute-FTP. My trial version expired, and I decided I didn't want to buy it because Filezilla has been highly recommended and it is free. I have downloaded Filezilla, but can't seem to get a connection to the server so that I can revise some of the website files and upload them. I keep getting a 530 Login incorrect error: cannot connect to server. I think I got the hostname, username and password correct, but I am not positive now, and I can't go back to Cute-FTP to see what I had entered there. It keeps shutting down on me. Is there any way I can find out exactly what I should be doing (like how to verify my login information) to get a connection?

View 14 Replies View RelatedLike a couple of others that have posted here recently, we are looking to switch hosting from Rackspace to someone else. We've been with Rackspace for 3 years, and host 2 dedicated servers with them for our e-commerce business. We were with three other hosting companies the 2 years before that with many headaches, and Rackspace really stabilized the IT part of our business.
But they don't seem to be too competitive on pricing as our business grows. Our servers are over 3 years old now, and we just wanted to upgrade to comparable HW. We have already replaced a couple of hard drives and would prefer to be proactive. But they won't move on their pricing which would be a SIGNIFICANT increase in our budget, and most of our original support team has moved on, and I don't sense the same level of support we once had.
Our system is Windows-based running Cold Fusion. We have a web server and a database server running SQL. I have a full-time Cold Fusion developer on staff, but need Windows managed dedicated servers for our growing e-commerce retail business. We sell products to consumers - we do NOT resell IT services. Our shopping cart and back end system was all developed in house in Cold Fusion.
So these are some of the possibilities we have come up with to replace Rackspace, and I would appreciate any feedback from those that may be utilizing services from any of these companies:

I've been using dot5hosting for about 2 years now and they have been alight. The thing is, for the last two years I have only been hosting a basic html/css website which is never to much stress on the servers. I don't get a huge amount of visitors on my site, but its a decent amount.
Just recently I have added a forum and blog on my site. For the forum I use Invision Power Board 2.3 and for my blog I use Wordpress 2.7. This is where the trouble begins.
Both the forum and the blog work fine, but they just take ages to load. If I had over 100 user on the blog and forum at one moment I would understand, but I haven't released the blog and forum to the public yet, as I'm trying to optimize them. The forum takes abou 10 seconds to load completely, while the blog takes over 15 seconds. I have tried everything with wordpress like cache etc..
So, I come here to ask what host you guys recommend for me. I've been looking over at HostGator and they seem to be what I need. I was also looking at MediaTemple Grid but form what I've read the Grid Service is very slow, and expensive. I just need a host that can run anything related to PHP and MySQl fast (like Wordpress and IPB)
I am in the process of transferring my hosting provider. I have completed the necessary steps to register an account with my new host(Host Papa). They already successfully transferred my domain and i am now waiting for the DNS change to be recognized(24-72 hrs). Host Papa now says the only thing to be done is to upload the website files to their server. The problem is that i have not yet copied the files from my old host, and i cannot seem to access the files now, as they have transferred the domain already.
I have no idea how to locate the files, as i have no access to my cPanel. I have not canceled my old host yet, and will not until my site is live on the new host. But i am stressing hard because i cant locate the files and obviously need that to happen asap.
So one of my current hosts is a GoDaddy reseller. The site they're hosting is an eCommerce store run on .asp. It uses the Early Impact ProductCart shopping cart. It uses MS SQL databases if I understand correctly.
I have two sites currently hosted with LiquidWeb. I would switch my eCommerce site over to them, except they only offer Linux shared hosting plans. I would have to go with a VPS to get Windows with them. I'm looking for a shared hosting plan with 5 things in mind:
1) Excellent support and hosting uptime - on the level of Liquid Web. I'm willing to pay a premium for a good host. Over the past few days, pages time out and do not load on my GoDaddy server...and GoDaddy's support is no good. The site is in the building stages right now so it receives no more than like 5 hits per day. Uptime is the biggest issue besides support. If my site doesn't load currently receiving 5 hits a day....it's gonna be AWFUL when it's getting more visitors.
2) Email accounts - I have to pay extra for email accounts with GoDaddy. I'm hoping for a free email solution if at all possible.
3) I will likely need help with moving my website over and making sure everything runs correctly on the new host's server. If there's a host who can provide support for this, it would be a huge help.
4) 30-Day Moneyback Guarantee required.
5) I'm currently on the GoDaddy Windows Economy plan. I would hope to keep most of these features with new host, including all critical ones such as server software, etc. I tried to link the page showing the features, however I don't have enough posts to do
As you may have noted from my previous posts im now switching from my old host to WiredTree.com, after a while i'll give a formal review, buy guys, trust me these guys are outstanding. The response time for a support ticket is literally within MINUTES...i can actually submit a support ticket.. sit for 5 or 10 minutes, refresh, and ill get an answer, and an answer that actually helps. This host is great, plus, they offer cPanel pre-installed, and free. Now that's great. So far i trust these guys completely.

Anyone else have any experience with a PDU of this nature? Just remote on/off is really required and SNMP.
I made a post earlier this week regarding spec of a server, and thanks for all the replies, looks like we were looking in the wrong area looking at hardware, instead of our application. However what it did bring to light is problems swapping from our server 1 to server 2.
Both our servers are hosted by same company, our domain name points at one of the servers, and as we were experiencing problems with speed decided to move our name from server 1 to server 2, we did this using a control panel supplied by our hosting company, this worked, but however caused major problems as some of our users accessing the server could not access for nearly 24 hours, I understand now that making these changes takes time to propogate around the web.
My question is, is there anyway of switching our domain name from one server another, that from a user point of view is nearly instant, so within minutes of us making the switch ALL our users can access the new server?
Im planning on using WAMPserver2 on our web server to host our website. Now, as far as I can tell, WAMPserver2 was mostly created to allow you to do work locally. Is there any known problem with using this software on a web server publically?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am finally switching servers at ThePlanet from my Celeron processor to a beefier and much more powerful/newer solution. It should solve all of my high load problems and it's really affordable.
So basically, I have to migrate about 30 sites to the new server. The problem is, several of the hosted sites rely on databases and some even have SSL certificates associated with them.
I have cPanel, and I know there is a cool tool in WHM to copy files from another server.
However, I have been told it will not bring any databases with it.
So I am stuck wondering how the heck I transfer the databases and have them all set up properly?
Also, how do I transfer an SSL certificate to the new server?
In addition to all of that, is there any information I need to know before initiating the transfer besides what I have already asked? I know I need to configure it first, with all of the settings I have on the old one.
I am not a web hosting company, this is all for personal use. I definitely need some guidance on what to do and how to do it right from the start.
The only other question I have, is how long does all of this take? Is this something I can do in the middle of the night and have up and running by morning or is this going to require a day or two of downtime and should be planned for the weekend?
You are hosting your web site on a local server and you have the DNS pointing to the LOCAL (read: not public) IP on your LAN which means only you and those on your LOCAL network can access the site.
192.168.1.8 is a LOCAL (PRIVATE) IP.
I got a new server and need to move my primary and secondary DNS. I use cpanel.
My idea was too:
1. Shut off my secondary DNS ns2. on my old server. (which I don't know how to do.) I was able to delete it from the nameserver Ip's link in whm. It deleted it but the server still has the IP assigned to it.
2. Set up my secondary dns on the new server. (cpanel wont let me because it says it already exists so I'm kind of stuck on this one too.)
3. Once the secondary is set up go to my registar and change the IP address.
4. move the sites, and turn off the primary ns server forcing everything to go to the new server or secondary dns.
5. move the primary..
